Featherstone Outdoor - El Cordion Ultralight Closed Cell Foam Sleeping Pad

In my opinion you will need a foam mat and an inflatable sleeping pad. An accordion style foam mat like a Featherstone can fold up into a suitcase. If you are on a budget, get a Klymit Static V as your inflatable (or ThermaRest brand if not on budget) I would get the EE Revelation 0Deg quilt (20 ozs)

The Featherstone El Cordion is 22 inches wide but otherwise similar to the Z Lite. 2.1 R value, 16 oz

My hiking buddy has the Thermarest Z Lite, and I have the Featherstone El Cordion. I can't tell the difference in material but mine was $20 cheaper and 2 inches wider. I also have a closed cell sit pad generic Amazon that is noticeably thinner material. So, there probably is a difference if you go super cheap but the middle of the road ones up to the Thermarest are probably very similar.

Exped and Featherstone will work. They have vertical baffles and the other two are larger to help hold you in the mat. I have experience with Exped, but Featherstone is the more budget friendly of the two.
